Red Bridey

I think Meghan played the Glamis bitches perfectly. She realized her actions were not playing well with the other ladies and made what appeared to be a "sincere" apology. I would have said the exact same words but in my head, I'd be going "la la la now Vicky, Heather and Tamra heard what they wanted to hear and I'm off the hook." I love Shannon for some reason. I used to like Heather for being articulate and well-spoken, but now I am ambivalent. I don't know why she'd expect or even think of asking Shannon or Meghan to visit Vicky...VICKY...at the ER. She knew that Shannon erected a wall against Vicky...as did Meghan. Sorry, Vile Vicky you shrieking harpy, you reap what you sow and you are on your own. Tamra, ugh. Kelly, double ugh. Vicky, I fast forward through every single one of her segments. Don't know and don't care.

What, no sympathy for Chrissy Fischetti, the world famous artist promoter, whose identity was "stoled" and her reputation "deframed" by her evil nemesis Julienne Beshere? Neither one of these Link'd In wonderwomen with their madd PR and A&R skillz looked like they could find their way through a regular telephone book.

How cute was the first Moroccan landlord (?) with his turban and his caftan? He was so adorable!

If he's a conditional resident, he doesn't have a green card. He's legally allowed to work, but he is NOT a legal permanent resident (green card holder). The conditional status lasts for two years following the wedding. The couple will be called in for a final interview, and if they fail to show or fail the interview, his legal status is revoked and he needs to leave the country. However, deportation proceedings are expensive and there are more dangerous criminals to pursue, so Mo would be a low-level priority. Like millions of others, if he keeps a low profile and out of the criminal justice system, he can realistically stay here for as long as he wants. Sad but true.

Nick is an idiot too and deserves all the heartache he'll eventually suffer!

No, Maria is just a big idiot and kind of selfish. Wait for the inevitable "Caz falls in love with Maria and causes no end of trouble for them both" plotline. I see her making the Street think Maria is crazy again so Maria is left without friends so that, bam! Caz can rescue her. And Luke will know, but won't care because Maria is kind of a selfish bitch. (BTW, this is pure speculation after decades of Corrie watching...I'm not spoiling anything other than clichés)

I noticed Bad Butt Lady's slightly crossed eyes too.

So what with the Olympics and some DVR issues, I may have missed an episode here and there, so why the heck is Kaz still around? Wasn't she supposed to be under court-martial proceedings? Doesn't this woman have any other friends (unlikely, I know, because seriously she is the most unpleasant, bitchy looking woman I've seen on my screen in many a moon) that she can kip with? And if she was under proceedings, wouldn't she be in the British version of the brig? The British Air Force just lets their soldiers run away and fake injuries with no consequences?

Thank you, editorgrrl. I guess I did not pick up on the nostalgic details in the commercial. I'll have to rewatch. Now I guess all I got is that Dad made bad food choices as a kid and passes them along to the next generation. [Confession: chicken nuggets and the sausage egg biscuit are the ONLY two items I will ever order at a McDonald's...and I have red hair, though mine is super curly]

There's a McDonald's commercial (for Chicken nuggets maybe) with a little boy and a little redheaded girl in split screens which baffles me. Does the little boy turn into the little girl's father? I thought the kids were friends, but it doesn't make any sense any which way.

Dancing vegetables and then dancing super models...

Oh yes, mightsparrow, if I could be ever considered a "youth of the world," I would raise my hand. But I'm not, and so the moment passes by... SUCH a BEAUTIFUL Olympic flame/ cauldron!

This guy is cracking me up with the three different languages and his excitement! I am recording NBC but watching CBC which is two hours ahead. Now the French guy...I don't "speak French" but can completely understand everything he's saying. Zhank you to all the volunteers also!

(I'm watching the CBC coverage). The lowering of the Olympic flag always makes me teary.

There is no way on God's green earth Mama June was wearing a size 16. Unless she had a personal tailor size her clothes creatively. She was still fat. It isn't extra size; it's fifty pounds of fat that can't be removed safely other than by exercise and calorie reduction. Keep at it, Mama June, you reality show nightmare. Keep working at it!

My DVR always seems to cut off the last minute even when I program one full hour. Did the snotosaurus finally get relief from the drip?

I really liked Shyamlee too, and am very sad she didn't win. Zach, phffft, I wanted to like him based on his interview, but I really really don't. So he'll be around for a while! I didn't get FJ, sorry to say and felt really dumb afterwards.

I will not watch the "whackjob" segments any more. I'm tired of living dolls, celebrity look-alike wannabees, freaks and weirdos. I won't give them a moment of my attention, though I know they crave it. And it gives me a few more minutes to watch another show. Fame whores are so tedious! And again with the boobs! HATE that grown women use the word "boobs." If they have to discuss their ugly-ass inflated mammaries, say breast implants.

Yes, thank goodness Senator Al played to win. What annoys me is when contestants playing for charity goof off and have a "good time" instead of playing to win money for their charity! Be serious. I was so impressed with Carol Burnett, when she was on Celeb Jep years ago because she wanted to win for whatever was her charity. Loved her. Love Senator Al.

Why couldn't Jason be bothered to shave for the tournament? His grey patchy bear was annoying me every time I looked at him. I didn't care that Charlie helped him with his tie...someone needed to say SHAVE, dammit.

I pulled out Algonquin out of the mists of memory, but I know that if I had been in that studio with the music playing and the lights and the stress, I wouldn't have been able to clear my mind enough to remember it. At first, I was fixated on Adirondack, close but not correct! I completely missed all the Central American Capitals, but everyone knows geography is not my strong suit. I got Bobby Hull, and cribbage. I *hate* the categories with letters that may not be together but are in order. When I was on J!, the category was "O-M-G", and I didn't even try to ring in because my mind fixated on words with OMG consecutively, of which there are few. I had that "deer in the headlights" look on my face and I had that sinking feeling that my Jeopardy! dream would end up a horrible, horrible nightmare.

Also, where are all the dead bodies coming from? At the beginning of the show, there shouldn't be any. Seriously, how many dead people do YOU encounter in your work day? Hospitals and funeral parlors are uniquely equipped to contain any zombies, I would think. Where does the Horde come from?

Is it just my TV or are Melissa's teeth really yellow? Not having the most sparkling white teeth myself, I am not criticizing her and her mad skillz, but she's so blond and pink, I am always taken aback by what appear to be lemon yellow choppers.

What I wish for is to get some answers about the virus, the disease, and why the damn zombies exist. We are going through the Zika (Xika?) virus "epidemic" right now. I heard my first story on the virus about two months ago regarding the microencephaly babies. Now we know how the virus is transmitted, we know where the vectors are, and scientists are beginning to develop biological weapons and vaccines against the mosquitos. WHY don't these people know anything about why the dead are coming back to life??? It makes no sense. The zombies can't have eaten all the doctors, researchers and scientists already. Newscasters, commentators, there's no interest in the Big Story. Naïve, I must be, but I fail to understand how educators and people who drive around in trucks listening to the radio haven't heard ONE WORD about this contagion. And don't argue that the government is hiding the evidence: there are too many ways to publish conspiracy, anti-government, TRUTHer stories that the mainstream media would surely pick up on.

I said the Seven Days War for the Yom Kippur war. Are they the same war? I knew it was an Israeli conflict!
